That might be the case , I seem to remember something being written about that . Why did he need to though , surely his role is to hire the people who do that . I am aware of the Paratici situation but that sits squarely with Levy . Not sure its praiseworthy cleaning up a mess of one’s own making

Of course, there will never be a 100 % guarantee - but playing time is naturally something the player is concerned about and it is discussed, as he want to know where he in the "picture".
Sometimes people don't get jobs done, perfectly acceptable in any work environment where the Dir or CEO steps in to get a deal over the line, that's the whole point of having a team and an owner who has their back.
But for some reason in football or maybe at Spurs this is a problem, what a weird argument.
Levy having someone’s back LOL
He has sacrificed managers on the altar of deflection at the rate most people change their socks .
Anyway last time we did this neither of us shifted our opinion and I’m pretty sure we won’t again
Those goalposts got shifted pretty quick didn't they...

Ok, let’s have it the other way and have the bald cunt absolutely nowhere near deals in that case
Maybe, not sure we should give a shit either way as long as he has his team fo the bulk of the work, if it requires his expertise on deals not shifting (like Dragusin) then he should be assisting if he can get the deal over the line.
People worry far too much about this crap.
Why would we sign a player that’s not in the picture to start?
Not sure what goalposts I shifted
I wrote "where in the picture" - which totally different than "not in the picture".
Players get bonuses according to how many games they play, and many adds-on transfer fees are based on games played.
But, fine, if you don't believe that players want certain assurances before signing for another clubs but simply sign without discussing or caring about potential playing time that's fine with me.
By the look of it, Gray could be the "new" Romero 
After seeing how Djed Spence was tearing up the Championship (gosh, I can't stand that silly league name!) I do have my reservations about paying £40-50m for Gray...but...

Debate started out as 'Levy should step away from the football side'
You shifted the goalposts to 'Levy never has manager's backs' which is interesting because you chose 4 words I wrote to attack my argument instead of the main crux of the actual argument.
The reason is because you're unable to relent from your bald bad man position, boring - can't be arsed to do these bad faith debates.
I just can't see a world where any club would give any type of assurances.
Dragusin the perfect example. He can't have been promised anything because he'd be fuming by now. BUT he didn't come here at his age to be anyone's back up. He came to compete.

Really think most Spurs fans underestimate how exciting Gray would be as a signing.
Apparently it’s on the player side.
He doesn’t like PSG anymore. I think they poached him from the Barca academy promising a pathway and didn’t keep to it
I reckon we are in talks and it will happen. As long as we have a free run at him. If Cit’s come in and offer him a contract then we’ll be in trouble. I’m quite surprised the scum aren’t in for him too actually.
Because he can’t help himself.
If Angelos want him I am not against signing him and he looks to be a bright talent but Djed Spence is a proof that the EPL & the Championship are, yes, leagues apart.
Besides, Gray's future is as a CDM, where he's hardly played in the Championship.
Yeah fair - end of the day it’s pretty obvious that it massively improved when Paratici came in, let’s see if that progression continues. Levy is far less than involved than under Poch and it shows
